Higgs Searches at the LHC
T. Vickey (for the ATLAS, CMS Collaborations)
TL;DR
This paper reviews the potential of ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC to discover the Standard Model Higgs boson with limited data, and discusses their prospects for detecting supersymmetric Higgs bosons.
Contribution
It provides an assessment of the early discovery sensitivity for the Higgs boson and supersymmetric Higgses at the LHC based on projected experimental performance.
Findings
ATLAS and CMS can potentially discover the Standard Model Higgs with low integrated luminosity.
The experiments have promising sensitivity to supersymmetric Higgs bosons.
Early LHC data could lead to significant Higgs discovery prospects.
Abstract
These proceedings summarize the sensitivity for the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC to discover a Standard Model Higgs boson with relatively low integrated luminosity per experiment. A brief discussion on the expected performance from these experiments in searches for one or more of the Higgs bosons from the minimal version of the supersymmetric theories is also included.
